Curls Whipped Cream

What the Comapany says
"Whipped Cream is the perfect product for natural styles (twists, locks, afros & more) for thick, kinky, curly 3c-4b hair! This thick, and ultra rich whipped cream has a warm vanilla cream fragrance that makes you want to eat it! It provides SUPERB curl definition, frizz protection all while providing moisture and sheen. Enriched with natural oils, exotic butters and nourishing extracts and botanicals. Also works great as gel substitute to smooth edges, slick hair, and to hold twists and locks in place."

My Honest Opinion:
It tested within the acidic pH range (5).It is not a thick "whipped cream". If you tilt the container, the content easily "pours"out. It is very light in consistency. It smells great, just like vanilla. I have only used this to twist my hair and it shrinks up my twists, possibly due to water being the first ingredient. Even though, a lot of oils were listed as some of its ingredients, it did not provide any sheen to my hair, as advertised. It made my hair feel very moist when it was applied, however, my hair beame really dry afterwards. I have no idea why. It seems to have a lot of moisturizing ingredients and oils. I tried using it again and I still did not like it. I think it will be better to mix it with some kind of oil. The company also says that it can be used to slick the hair back and smooth edges. I never tried using it that way, so I will probably use it for that purpose.
